How to Read an SNES Data Cartridge

The SNES (Super Nintendo Entertainment System) was released in the U.S. in 1991. It replaced the older NES and had 16-bit graphics, 512Kb of audio RAM and many Nintendo exclusive games, such as Super Metroid, Super Mario World and Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. SNES games come on SNES data cartridges. The only legal way to read the SNES data cartridges is to put them in an SNES game console.
